Good afternoon sir, I am Rejean De Vera as Faaiza which is the first wife , Rose Camille Datuin

as nurse, Cassandra Grace Dela Cruz as ob-gyne, Lady Ivone Dispo as Eshna which is the
second wife, Owen Magus De Vera as Aariz which is the husband. We are the group 2 and
today we will perform about the natural family planning of Muslim people.
Natural family planning (or "fertility awareness") is a method of contraception where a woman
monitors and records different fertility signals during her menstrual cycle to work out when
she's likely to get pregnant.

Narrator: One morning there is a Muslim family which consist of two wives and one husband
who went to the ob-gyn to acquire natural family planning.

Nurse: Good afternoon sir/ma’am, I’m Rose Camille Datuin and I will be your nurse for today.
Ano pong kailangan nila?
Husband: We would like to acquire natural family planning po, nurse.
Nurse: sa paga acquire po kasi ng natural family planning, kailangan ko po kayong irefer kay
doc. Pero bago po yon, kailangan ko po munang kunin ang mga information niyo na kailangan
po namin. And I would like to assure you, that the information that you will give us will remain
confidential.
<MEDICAL HISTORY>
May alam po ba kayo tungkol sa natural family planning?
Husband: Wala po,doc
Ob: Naka gamit na po ba kayo ng any family planning method dati?
Husband: Hindi pa po.
Nurse: Kumusta naman po relationship nila sa isat isa?
Husband: Nagkakaintindihan naman po kami.

Narrator: After the nurse gathered the demographic data and the medical history of the patient.
The nurse now proceed into referring the patient to the ob-gyne.

Nurse: Good afternoon, doc. Sila po yung nirefer ko pong patient. This is doctora Dela Cruz
and she will be your ob. And doc ito po pala yung mga information ng mga patient and yung
medical history po nila.
Ob: Good afternoon sir/ma’am. I am Dr. Dela Cruz an obstetrician-gynecologist and I will be
your OB. Kumusta po sila?
Patients: ayos naman po, doc.
Ob: Ano pong mga concerns nila?
Wife 2: Ayaw ko pa kasing mabuntis this year. What can I do po ba for me not to get pregnant?
Ob: What about you ma’am?
Wife 3: As for me I would like to get pregnant. Kailan po ba yung mataas na possibility, for us
to get pregnant?
Ob: Sa Natural Family Planning/ Fertility Awareness-Based Method, hindi po tayo gagamit ng
drugs or any device that is inserted in the reproductive tract.
But first we must know the signs if you are already ovulating. When we say ovulation, it is the
release of mature egg cell. So when you are aware of your days of ovulation, then you will be
able to know that you will get pregnant if you will have sexual contact with your partner.
So what are the signs of ovulation?
-Increase body temperature (or yung pagtaas ng temperatura ng katawan)
- Tenderness of breasts (o pagsakit ng dibdib. So ito ang unang sintomas ng pagbubuntis na
nangyayari after 1-2 weeks pagkatapos maglihi)
- Cervical mucus is present (yun yung discharge na tinatawag o ito yung lumabas sa ari ng
babae.)
-Increase of sexual urge (ibig sabihin, ito ay ang pagtaas ng kagustuhan sa pakikipagtalik para
mapalakas ang libido) So there are many different ways to do this.
Abstinence
-abstinence is completely effective. In here, there is no sexual intercourse. Which means kung
walang sexual contact between the man and the woman, then there will be no pregnancy. Kasi
hindi naman pwedeng mabuntis ang isang bababe kapag walang sperm cell na galing sa lalaki.
Calendar Method
-we use this to identify when will be the safe time to have a contact with your partner. But in
here, it is better to use it if you are regularly menstruating. Regular menstruation means kung
ang means cycle for instance is 28 days, them mag-ooccur ang menstrual cycle every 28 days.
In here, we will identify the day of ovulation. For example, 30 days ang cyle and then we will
subtract 14 so that is 16 and that is the day of ovulation. So you need to avoid sexual
intercourse 3-5 days before and after ovulation.
For irregular menstruation naman, we will determine the shortest and longest cycle for 6-12
months
Shortest -18
Longest -11 constant numbers
For instance, after 23 days, may period ka
And then on the next month is 35 days
Shortest 23-18= 5th
Longest 35-11= 24th so simula 5th to 24th day, those are unsafe periods to have sexual
contact

Basal Body Temperature Method

-again if nagrise ang body temperature mo, then you are ovulating. Before the day of
ovulation, Your BBT falls about 0.5F. During the time of your ovulation, your BBT rises
for about 0.4 to 0.8F because of the influence of progesterone.
Check your temperature every morning before you do any activity
Avoid sexual intercourse to 3rd day after rise of temperature
<dito sasabihin kung ano mas suitable na method sa patient.>
<after the explinations of methods>

Ob: So what method interests you the most?

Wife 1(Faaiza): I prefer abstinence method po doc, para hindi po ako mabuntis.
Wife 2(Eshna): Calendar method so I can know when can we have sexual intercourse for us to
have a higher chance of getting pregnant.

*Discuss the advantages and disadvantages

--The good thing about abstinence is that you can prevent STDs and maaavoid rin ang
accidental pregnancies. But the downside is it would be difficult for you to avoid it especially
kapag nag-iincrease and sexual urge.
Wife 1: Pano po pag hindi po naming naiwasang magkaroon ng sexual intercourse?
Ob: Medyo mahirap itong icontrol kaya kailangan talaga natin ng self control at discipline. Pero
pag hindi talaga natin maiiwasang mag sex mayron po tayong tinatawag na coitus interruptus
or withdrawal method. Ito po yung pag labas ng ari ng lalake mula sa babae bago ito maglabas
ng semen or sperm cells. May tanong pa po ba kayo?
Wife 1: Wala naman na po.
--In calendar method naman, obviously, it doesn’t require any doctor appointments. Meaning
you can monitor your day of ovulation by yourself. So kailangan na nakarecord sa calendar mo
yung mga days mga menstruation mo. Ang disadvantage naman ay hindi lahat ay regular ang
menstruation. If you are irregularly menstruating, then an unintended pregnancy may happen.
: Importante po bang magkaroon ng sariling kalendaryo?
Ob Wife 2: Yes po, importante pong mayron kayong sariling kalendaryo para po mairecord at
mamonitor niyo ng maayos ang inyong menstrual cycle. Meron pa po ba kayong tanong?
Wife 2: Wala na po doc

Ob: So, did you understand me? Or do you still want me to repeat the information?
Patients: Naintindihan naman po doc.
Ob: is that so? Okay if you really listened well, then can you repeat the method that you have
chosen?
Wife 1: In abstinence po we will just avoid having sexual intercourse to avoid pregnancy and
STDs. And also we should have self-control and discipline, pero pag hindi talaga naming
maiwasang magkaroon ng sexual intercourse. We will just use the coitus interruptus or the
withdrawal method.
Wife 2: I will provide my own calendar to record and monitor my menstrual cycle. Since
irregular ako, I will identify my shortest and longest menstrual cycle and then calculate to
determine my day of ovulation. Since, gusto kong mabuntis we’ll have sexual intercourse
during my day of ovulation for a higher possibility of getting pregnant.
Ob: Mabuti naman at naintindihan niyo yung mga sinabi ko. Yun lang naman po, pero pag may
naencounter po kayong problems or may mga hindi kayo naintinihan pwede po kayong
bumalik dito. Make sure po na after 1 month, makabalik kayo dito para po mairecord at
mamonitor po natin kung may mga changes.
Patients: Sige po, doc. Thank you po.
Narrator: After the consultation with their ob, they went home. After they arrived at their
house, Faaiza, which is the first wife went to their bedroom to rest. And Eshna, which is the
secod wife went to the kitchen to cook their food. Aariz, which is the husband went to the
bedroom to talk about the result of their consultation.

Aariz: Faaiza wake up, we have to talk about what we will do.
Faaiza: We’ll just follow the abstinence method, so, we cannot have sexual intercourse at any
cost. We also need to discipline ourselves for me not to get pregnant.
Aariz: But, what if, we didn’t intend to and we did have sex? What will we do?
Faaiza: We’ll just do the coitus method, you can just pull out your penis from me when you’re
about to ejaculate or before you ejaculate.

Narrator: After the talk between Aariz and Faaiza, Aariz went to the kitchen where Eshna is, to
talk with her.

Aariz: So… about our counsel earlier we just have to the follow the method properly for us to
have a higher chance of getting pregnant.
Eshna: Yeah, if we stick to the method, we will surely get pregnant.

Narrator: Pagkatapos nilang mag-usap ay natapos narin si Eshna sa kanyang pagluluto, kaya’t
tinawag na nila si Faaiza sa hapag kainan. Habang sila ay kumakain, napag desisyonan nilang
sabihin ang kanilang kaniya kaniyang decision sa isat isa tungkol sa kanilang counsel.
